Weekend Fun

This past weekend Rob's friend, William, stopped by for a visit. Rob has known William since the first grade. William was visiting family north of us and he was on his way back to Fayetteville, NC.

We decided to go to dinner that evening at a local restaurant and brewery. We expected to have a nice quiet meal, but were interrupted half way through by the fire alarm! At first we didn't move and all the patrons just sat looking at each other. Eventually, the waitress came to the table and informed us that they didn't believe there was a fire, but decided to evacuate the building anyway. Rob thought we weren't going to back in the restaurant for awhile and was sure to grab his fish taco. William's hamburger and fries were a little too much to carry, so he took the whole plate! The fire department arrived and made sure all was well. Of course I forgot my camera, but Rob had his cell phone. Here are a few blurry pictures from dinner:


After half an hour we were finally let back in and we were unhappy to discover that there wasn't a "fire alarm" discount. My food was cold, so I wasn't able to finish my meal.

After our adventure at the restaurant we came home. Rob and William played Guitar Hero late into the evening. Here are a few photos from that evening:



The next morning Rob took William to see the ship. I didn't go with them. William is in the Army, so there was a lot military talk that I didn't or want to understand. After the tour of the ship, Rob and William returned home and played MORE Guitar Hero.

It was so great to see William, we were so glad he stopped by for a visit!

  1. Aw, glad y'all had fun! William looks just a little uncomfortable with the whole "half hug"! I can't believe the restaurant didn't give a discount. Too bad you didn't take your steak outside with you ;)

  2. I'm gonna be honest with you, I wouldn't have paid for that meal!

    Also, I agree with KT, William doesn't look to lovey dovey with ole Rob.
